Set up in 1949, UNMOGIP was deployed in January of that year to supervise the ceasefire agreed between India and Pakistan in the State of Jammu and Kashmir. Since renewed hostilities in 1971, UNMOGIP (United Nations Military Observer Group in India and Pakistan ) monitors the ceasefire called for by the United Nations Security Council. The Council decided to enlarge the membership of UNCIP and to recommend various measures including the use of observers to stop the fighting.

In August 1947, India and Pakistan became independent. Under the scheme of partition provided by the Indian Independence Act of 1947, Kashmir was free to accede to India or Pakistan. Its accession to India became a matter of dispute between the two countries and fighting broke out later that year. At the end of 1971, hostilities again broke out between India and Pakistan. When a ceasefire came into effect again, a number of positions on both sides of the 1949 ceasefire line had changed hands. In July1972, India and Pakistan signed an agreement defining a Line of Control in Kashmir which, with minor deviations, followed the same course as the ceasefire line established by the Karachi Agreement in 1949.

Pakistan and India have been in conflict for many years. Because of this they created the United Nations Military Observer Group in India and Pakistan to stop the fight between the two counties. This picture shows them observing the border between the countries.
